READ THE OPERATOR'S MANUAL
Read, understand and follow the safety messages and instructions in this manual. If these safety messages are not
followed, serious injury or death could occur.
1.3.1
BE AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS
When operating or traveling in the machine, the operator may not observe people and obstacles near the machine.
To prevent serious injury, death or damage to the machine.
• Adjust the mirrors for maximum visibility around the machine before operating. If needed, clean the mirrors.
• If the machine is equipped with the rearview camera and the side cameras, clean the lenses to display clear
images from the rearview and side cameras to the monitor.
• There are blind spots in the mirror and camera views. Confirm for safety around the machine before operating
the machine.
• Move the attachment /equipment as needed to improve visibility of the right side during machine travel.
• If needed, use a signal person. The operator should always be alert and follow the signals from the signal
person. The operator shall respond to signals only from the appointed signal person, but shall obey a stop signal
from anyone at any time.
• When operating in dark locations, turn on the work light. Additional lighting may be needed to illuminate the work
area.
• Stop work if you have poor or limited visibility because of darkness, fog, rain, especially lightning, snow, or other
causes.
• Never attach mirrors or other articles to the handrails. Over time, excessive vibration may weaken the handrail
and cause it to fail.
• If a failure occurs on the rearview camera or the side camera, contact your KOBELCO authorized dealer for
repair.
• Do not operate the machine without the monitor pictures of the rearview camera and the side camera being
displayed.
• Do not remove or disassemble the rearview camera and the side camera systems.
The camera systems are installed on the base machine according to ISO 16001:2017. When removal or
disassembly of them is required, contact your KOBELCO authorized dealer otherwise it may void the machine
warranty.
MIRROR AND CAMERA LOCATION
Only use genuine KOBELCO mirrors, rearview camera system, and side camera system.
Regarding adjustment of the mirrors and the rearview camera, see "ADJUSTMENT OF MIRRORS" in Chapter 3.
